The above URL suggests you may need compacting your whole Thunderbird's folders and/or re-arranging your mailbox folders. Although YMMV, there's was limit a folder can store set to ~4 GiB (for older versions of the MUA) so if you are using an old (<3.1) version of the program and some of your folders hold more data, try by moving them into a subfolder to make room.
